yeah his stats aren't that incredible either, I very much doubt that there is any truth to this.
I doubt Wenger would pay 15 million anyway.

Chile just scored

 

[velvet_nitemare]

Snap...1-0 Chile

 

[Mama Smurf]

Well he's scored 1 in 2 on average for Boca, that's pretty great. I wouldn't be surprised if Wenger has looked at him, but I just think it's a waste of time to bid.

 

[hadareud]

and at 25 he's an old man really

 

[velvet_nitemare]

WTF...they're just rolling around like it's going out of style.

 

[Lakitu]

No, he jumped around in glee and shook my hand furiously when I bumped into him.

It was the highlight of my weekend.

Lowlight, food poisoning, and a bloke touching my arse

 

[hadareud]

and a bloke touching my arse

i thought Babel looked a bit dodgy, but touching your arse the first time you meet?

 

[velvet_nitemare]

Game over.

 

[Mama Smurf]

Men have pinched my arse before.

To be fair, I was walking through a gay district, I might as well have covered myself with jam and thrown myself into a beehive, then complain when I got stung. They can't help themselves, look at me.

 

[hadareud]

that's true. I'm not gay but I can hardly hold myself back looking at you

edit: oh god, it's this guy commentating again on gol tv.
I can't take this excitement, it makes me suicidal

 

[hadareud]

who is this player?

 

[Tf53]

WOW, glorious shot! Brazil 1-0 up.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

O shit...nice goal

 

[hadareud]

why the **** could he not do that when it mattered?

 

[Lakitu]

why the **** could he not do that when it mattered?

He only scores against big teams like Liverpool.

Ray Hudson?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Hudson

some of his quotes are legendary...

 

[Mama Smurf]

Great goal, I'd like to see him in the Premiership.

Messi's acceleration is ridiculous. I don't know if he's the fastest player around, though I'm sure he's up there, but I'm pretty sure he's the fastest off the mark.

yeah
he's too excited for me

every time I hear "Ay-yiay" I get read to kill

Quicker than Henry? We'll see next year...

 

[Annoying Old Party Man]

anywhere on the net to see this match?

 

[velvet_nitemare]

He's hilarious...i can't take a game seriously if he's commenting.

I have a textaloud program and i loop it so i can repeatedly hear his quotes in the funniest

voices possible.Good stuff.

 

[hadareud]

I find it funny for a while. Today's alright, but he's incredibly biased when Real play - that's hard to take

[hadareud]

what a save

 

[velvet_nitemare]

OWN GOAL!!!

 

[Fowler]

Damn.

 

[Shinobi]

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol Dummy...

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

:lol

As always, Argentina can't see a Brazil jersey without shitting their pants.

 

[hadareud]

is Tevez even playing?

 

[Fowler]

This is like a giant collective nightmare for the entire nation of Argentina.

 

[Falch]

haha, dat Ray Hudson is hilarious. :lol

On Baptista's goal: "And that's a Howitzer going past Abbondonzieri".:lol

 

[Mama Smurf]

I feel sorry for Tevez, he's basically playing up front alone. They say he's partnered by Messi, but he's not, not once did Messi do something from the striking position, he always starts from the wing or midfield.

Personally I'd boot Cambiasso or Veron out of the team, make Messi a midfielder again (all be it an attacking one) and put Crespo up front with Tevez.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

3-0...Danny Alves:lol

 

[Batongen]

....and there's the match for Brazil.

 

[Mama Smurf]

Where's cae?

 

[Shinobi]

Well, there's always the U20 quarter final!!

 

[newsguy]

Is Argentina's first team getting waxed by Brazil's B team? This is ****ing boring.

 

[hadareud]

not the game I hoped for.

Argentina just don't show up when it matters

same at the world cup - no one gives a **** about games in the group stages against Serbia.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

An Existential pass?:lol

Nietzsche must be rolling in his grave

 

[Batongen]

I agree, what a shitty final. Oh well, I think I'll watch some U20 action instead.

 

[Mario_Hugo]

Man, so depressing. Ugly game in general. I sit here with my dad wearing boca jerseys for shit.

 

[celestial body]

Anyone see that program tonight (BBC2) about the Cosmos and the NASL during the late 70's? fascinating story, with a lot of interesting characters. Even though Pele, C Alberto and Beckenbauer played for them I still can't believe they were getting 77K attendances for a football match, that's like current united levels.

 

[cae]

As always, Argentina can't see a Brazil jersey without shitting their pants.

More like the inverse, Brazil plays a lot better when they face us and we are playing good (and viceversa too). The problem wasn't scare, the problem were they playing like an impressive european team on the defense (Dunga's philosophy and experience as a player was clear as water on the field), and making perfect counter-attacks.

Where's cae?

Was at my dad's place crying, sorry.

Yeah, pretty shitty. I would write a lot, but my english sucks and you guys don't care, so... gratz Brazil, best football country of the history by a landslide.

 

[Osorio]

You're not really Argentinian if you admit to that.

 

[cae]

Maybe i'm not, i don't care, i was just born here and see the matches that my national team plays with passion because i enjoy them (why would i watch them if not?). But reality is another thing, and i prefer to think with my brain, not my flag. We are an amazing sports factory given our economic resources, population and social status, but Brazil has the best fútbol in the world with too damn much advantage. That's it.

 

[Mario_Hugo]

Brazil just brings it to the big games. By most accounts, they shouldn't have even been at this final - but they brought it and we (Argentina) buckle under pressure - Riquelme is so hit or miss (and this game was miss). Pato is old - take him out. Verron played like ass. Where the hell was tevez? Overall, it wasn't the team Argentina has been bringing out. We didn't win a single header the entire game. It was a sad match.

That said, Brazil was overtly aggressive - they played ugly. I think once you have 5 yellow cards, next yellow should out a player. But, if the world cup match with Germany is any indication - that's the best way to take Argentina out. Forget joga bonito.

 

[DM_Uselink]

Argentina wins 1-0 against Mexico in the U-20 world cup...

Very disappointing...

Oh come on, I know what you mean but that was an accident. Something like that can happen in every match and our striker could've been injured as well.

 

[Cornballer]

Just finished watching the Brazil-Argentina match. F**king Baptista - where was that all season? I watched the Univision broadcast, btw - Ray Hudson has overstayed his welcome after all of this Copa commentary for the past 3+ weeks.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

Just saw the Palacio bid on the BBC website rumour section...source is the Sun tho,so throwaway i guess.

 

[godhandiscen]

The Argentina - Mexico match was pure bull. For once in my life I had money on Mexico and this shit happens. Still, I knew Brazil was going to win, but never like it happened. Argentina needs to work in this kind of shit. They never can come back from a goal down against a decent team.
